Ironically, the more stitches, the less scarring oftentimes. Smaller stitches mean more of them, but much cleaner healing. I have a scar across my cheekbone from going over the handlebars of my bike face-first into a bank of gas meters. Most people can't see it though because the er doc did a great job with the stitches.

The important thing is the cancer is gone and you are healing.

Deep breaths. smile
